The combination of an oval cut with a lab-grown diamond is one of the fastest-growing trends in engagement rings. The oval's 10% larger face-up area combined with lab-grown value means you can achieve a truly impressive ring at a fraction of the traditional cost.

The oval cut combines the brilliance of a round with an elongated silhouette that faces up approximately 10% larger than a round of the same carat weight. Its shape creates the illusion of longer, more slender fingers, making it one of the most flattering diamond shapes available. The oval has surged in popularity, becoming the second most requested shape for engagement rings.

Bright, modern elegance at an accessible price. 18K white gold contains 75% pure gold alloyed with white metals such as palladium or silver, finished with a rhodium plating for a bright, reflective white appearance. It offers the elegant look of platinum with a lighter weight.

The £1,000–£1,500 range opens up a wonderful selection of lab-grown diamond engagement rings with larger centre stones and more setting options. This is one of the most popular budget ranges for couples choosing lab-grown diamonds.

Lab-grown oval engagement rings deliver exceptional visual impact — a 1ct oval faces up closer to a 1.2ct round.
